Shubman Gill's captaincy on Day 5 of the India vs England Test received criticism as England successfully chased down 371 runs, marking their second-highest run chase. Former cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar pointed out that Gill's overly defensive tactics, including too many boundary riders, allowed England to build momentum. Despite the challenges, England showcased a mature blend of aggression and discipline, with Duckett and Crawley setting a solid foundation. Ultimately, Joe Root and Jamie Smith led England to victory, highlighting their refined approach under coach Brendon McCullum.
